I considered the sailboat option, but I'm quite sure the local waters will also be covered with power boaters. We've talked to a few people, and watched our neighborhood boat storage empty out last night.
It's already a mess, I awoke to emergency vehicle sirens from the major thoroughfare, highway 17, which is just about two miles away. I cannot in good conscience send them out to fend for themselves, my prayer is that if that "I told you so" moment comes, it is merely inconvenience. -- Max Dillon Charleston SC '87 300TD '95 E300 On August 21, 2017 6:35:07 AM EDT, Mitch Haley via Mercedes <mercedes@okiebenz.com> wrote: >Max Dillon via Mercedes wrote: >> I'm out voted by the ladies, so we'll be part of the seething mass. > >Forget standing elbow to elbow with idiots that you didn't marry or >create. >Take the sailboat. > >Or, alternately: "You girls have a nice time, I'll keep the dog company >in case >he gets scared". > >I would not let anybody ruin the eclipse for me if my own backyard were >right in >the path of totality. > >If staying home and having 2 seconds less totality ruins it for wife >and >daughter units, they should join the throngs. >If joining the throngs ruins it for you like it ruins it for me, don't >join. > >Mitch. > >_______________________________________ >http://www.okiebenz.com > >To search list archives http://www.okiebenz.com/archive/ > >To Unsubscribe or change delivery options go to: >http://mail.okiebenz.com/mailman/listinfo/mercedes_okiebenz.com _______________________________________ http://www.okiebenz.com To search list archives http://www.okiebenz.com/archive/ To Unsubscribe or change delivery options go to: http://mail.okiebenz.com/mailman/listinfo/mercedes_okiebenz.com
